In 2012 we began monitoring wildlife near the Oracle Road wildlife bridge and

underpasses, which were completed in May 2016. Our goal is to study wildlife trends

before and after the construction of the wildlife crossings, to highlight successes, and

to identify emerging issues, lessons learned, and needed improvements.
